I replaced the alternator and had the battery charged, the car will start but the alternator won even spin!!! I cant even turn the wheel!! What could it be?
Make sure you have the serpentine belt routed correctly. Take the belt off and spin each pulley that the belt runs on by hand, to check if all are free spinning and not seized up. Does the alternator spin when the belt is off? Possibly the idler pulley or the tensioner pulley may be seized up or not spinning freely.
Defective alternator , replace and check tensioner , and tensioning of belt .
